Are you ready for Moore Butts, their latest conversation?
That's coming right up.
And hello there, Peter Mansbridge here, along with Gerald Butts, James Moore, and our regular, well, every second Tuesday conversation with these two esteemed gentlemen.
And it's been another interesting week.
And Jerry's been in Montreal, still in Montreal, actually, as we record this after the convention by the Liberals as they keep moving towards their majority position.
In fact, you could argue they already have it now, but it may be later.
enhanced by the Monday night by-elections.
We're recording this before those, but I think we all assume we know where those by-elections are headed towards.
James is in his regular haunt on the West Coast in Vancouver.
Do you actually say Vancouver or are you outside of Vancouver?
Okay.
Here's the question for this week.
You know, we either are or we aren't in a majority position for the Liberal government.
Most likely we are, as Tuesday sets.
But having said that, what real difference is there between a majority and a minority?
James, why don't you start?
Did the switch flip in your brain like in 2011?
the conservatives of which you obviously were a member of that cabinet, achieved their majority after a number of minorities.
Were you ready for it?
Did you see all that coming when you became a majority government?
